“If you want to keep a secret, you must also hide it from yourself.”

— 1984 - George Orwell

"What would your good do, if evil didn't exist, and what would the earth look like if all the shadows disappeared? After all, shadows are cast by things and people... But shadows also come from trees and living beings. Do you want to strip the world of trees and living things just because of you fantasy of enjoying naked light? You're stupid. "

- The Master and Margarita, Mihail Bulgakov

The Master and Margarita is genuanly one of the best novels I have read. It is full of black magic, witchcraft, mistery, misery, lessons, hard truths and philosophy. I strongly recommend you read it!!!

This one was a little bit more challenging to do than I thought it would be – and that was mostly in all the detail (RIP) ,as well as figuring out ways to adapt a Klimt-esque look to Howl. It was really tempting to put him in his pink jacket since it lends itself to rectangular form so well. However I just had to go and make things difficult for myself… because I love his transformed version!

Based on Klimts ‘The Kiss’ (1907-1908)
